Thank you so much for the scholarship. I plan to use this scholarship to help further my education in guiding me to be in the field of Health Management and possibly managing a healthcare facility one day.

This scholarship means the world to me as I am a student who goes to school full time and works throughout the week to pay for extra expenses while also trying to find any extra time to visit my little brothers and parents whenever I can. I plan to be very successful this school year and pull myself closer to my future not for myself as a first generation in my family but to also set an excellent example for my little brothers.

Again, thank you so much I cannot tell you how much it means to me to get this opportunity of receiving financial help.

I thank you so much for giving me the opportunity to receive this scholarship. This is my final semester and I was definitely worried about money. This scholarship couldn’t have come at a better time.  My last semester was my most difficult by far and I’m retaking one class that I did poorly in. With only a few classes this semester, I can put all my focus on that class and finish off my college career successfully. I’m only taking 6 hours this semester due to it literally being all I have left to do. I’m very excited to get this semester started. If possible, I also have plans to do an internship which will be a great boon to me this semester!

This scholarship has been a huge game-changer for me. So much so, that it ensures that I have nothing to fear this semester other than doing good in classes. Receiving this opportunity during my last semester at Texas State after transferring and dealing with Covid is certainly a wonderful surprise. I will work the hardest that I ever have to ensure that this doesn’t go to waste and pass these classes with amazing grades and get a good understanding to make good out of my future career.

I came to Texas State to pursue a BA in Computer Science. As I tackle this semester, I will be finishing the final requirements for my major. I thank you from the bottom of my heart for supporting me in this endeavor and helping make my burdens so much lighter. My family and I truly thank you for this opportunity. You are truly a blessed person and I wish you the best that life can possibly offer you for this gift you have shared. Thank you for this opportunity to prove my worth. I think my academic success will greatly showcase the application of your scholarship.

First, I would like to thank you for your generous donation toward my college career through the Family Campaign Scholarship. I am very grateful to be one of the recipients of this scholarship, as it has removed one of the many financial stresses college can bring: such as rent, textbooks, and online homework, and allowed me to focus on my education.  

Being from the very fast-paced yet connected city of Houston, when choosing a university, I not only looked at the school's curriculum but the community around it. Texas State provided me with great instructors, advisors, and a great community. Students here are very hardworking, which motivates me to continue to work hard, and the generosity the residents have shown me has encouraged me to participate in volunteering events like Bobcat Build to give back to this community.

I am a senior majoring in Biology with a minor in Psychology. I chose my major with plans to go into Medicine, but as I continued to further my education, the many disciplines the field of Biology has to offer began to interest me. Therefore, after I obtain my degree, I plan to continue my education in a more specialized science.

Your donations have encouraged me to concentrate on my education helping me become closer to my goal. So once again, I would like to thank you not just for choosing me as a recipient of this award, but also for providing me with detailed lectures and engaging activities that have helped me choose my career path.
